^your post - who cares
Amazing how little technological progress we've had since 9/11
-
- massive progress in data science
- massive progress in private and reusable space tech
- electric self-driving cars
- gigantic expansion in virtual interactions
- huge advancements in solar tech
- 30+m books scanned and made searchable
- big progress in AIDS drugs and immunosuppressants
etcNo real progress in data science, its just faster computers. The algorithms are mostly the same as 20 years ago once you remove all the dumb hype like GANs
Space has been an enormous regress, its amazing you'd put that up as a point of progress. Humanity sent a man to the moon 60 years ago, and we have now lost the technology to do this again. Noone has ever been back, and every modern attempt to do it again has failed. We have literally lost the ability to do one of the most profound achievements in history. The oriignal moon landings were meant to kickstart a super exciting program of space exploration with manned missions to Mars/etc, and this has been an utter and colossal failure
self-driving cars arent here yet
solar tech lol who cares, we solved the energy problem with nuclear power over 60 yeras ago and we havent capitalised on it due to stupid politics. Another example of an enormous technogical regress. We are literally trying to put solar panels on buildings when we are capable of splitting the atom and building nuclear stations. Absolutely absurd.
books scanned - who cares
AIDS reserach - who caresActually "computers getting faster" involves tremendous technological progress and is one of those rare instances where the quantitative morphed into the qualitative. Also have you heard about "topological insulators"? From Wiki: "a material [] that behaves as an insulator in its interior but whose surface contains conducting states,[2] meaning that electrons can only move along the surface of the material". This is fairly recent. Of course you don't see the consequences yet because it takes time to "work through the consequences".Generally speaking dumb post since you don't seem to know a lot about science.

You have all music in the world, all books ever written, all paintings ever painted at your fingertips.
Map out the share of time you spend with technology that was not around in 01. Reading kindle, my internet cell phone, I mean, yeah soccer was around in 01.Yet before people actually put effort into books, music etc and learnt stuff. Now instead of accessing that knowledge we spend ours looking into a messaging app and 2 photo sharing apps LJL

books scanned - who cares
AIDS reserach - who caresThis is a little over the top ("AIDS reserach - who cares"), but it's not wrong on the whole. How much would you pay for access to "books scanned"? Ten dollars? It's useless. Self driving cars are in fact not here. Space has virtually no effect on the economy, and is light years behind what people expected in 1969. "Data science" has delivered...what, exactly? More targeted ads?

What is Tesla? What is satellite tv? What is GPS? What is satellite based telecom?
If you think space tech has no effect on the economy, then I must call you an idiot.

People like to complain about a lack of real innovation, but they're uneducated morons who have no clue about r&d and make fun of intellectuals and scientists. It's like they think scientific and engineering breakthroughs just happen in a vacuum or something.
There's a reason why the US needs so many asians. Cuz amerifat can't do math or science.
